Dear Parents/Guardians,
There are 2 families in our school community that have suffered the devastating loss of their homes in the fire that occurred in our neighbourhood on March 12.
During this Lenten season, we ask for your prayers for these families during this very difficult time. In addition, if your family is able to make a cash donation, it would be very much appreciated. You can send in cash or a cheque (payable to St. Rita School) which will be given directly to the families. We will be collecting money until next Friday, March 31.
Thank you for your continued generosity and support,
The Charities Committee

In Math, we have begun to review what we already know about measurement in order to understand perimeter and area which is coming up. The past week's focus was to practise feeling comfortable with the units most common units of linear measurement- mm, cm, m and km. Ask your child what we measured with the orange measuring tool!
In Language, we continue to work on adventure stories that have a given problem or obstacle. Soon, the children will be asked to come up with all the parts of an adventure story on their own in preparation for Young Author's.
In Science, we are learning about different parts of a plant. Below, is our experiment to see what the purpose of straw like tubes in the stem are used for.
